instalment 3

Ace stood and cleared his throat, at six inches over six foot and with his classic Greek genes, he was presence that commanded respect no matter where he went. “Okay people, you are probably wondering what you are doing here. As you can see we have people from all over the world here. A multi-national task force is being put together, and your governments have hand selected you people to get it going and you have your first mission.” He paused and waited for the murmuring to stop. He and those above him knew that this wasn’t going to be easy, as most of the people in this room, were sworn enemies, at least their countries were sworn enemies, however they knew that in the coming years the world was going to change and they wanted to be on the ground running when it did.

Alright folks, back to business. We have discovered, or rather it has been brought to our attention, a very disturbing crime ring that needs to be stopped yesterday.” He turned to the screen behind him and watched as a map of the world was brought up. “It has come to our attention that there is an international adoption agency with offices around the world that are adopting stolen babies.” He pointed to the map and watched as dots were put in the countries and cities where the babies were being stolen from. “These are where we have been able to pinpoint an increase in babies disappearing,” he nodded his head and watched as more dots were put up on the map, “these countries have reported an increase in international adoptions.” There were only six countries that lit up. The United States, Canada, France, Great Britain, Ireland, and Norway.

“These countries are where we are going to focus,” Ace bent over the table and picked up a folder, he gestured to everybody to open the folders that were in front of them. “As you can see you have been paired up into groups of four. One man, and one woman in each group. You have been paired up based on your country of origin, and some other factors that you don’t need to know about. You will have two weeks to get everything in order, and then you are start this operation.

I'm taking a paragragh at a time.

You:Ace stood and cleared his throat, at six inches over six foot and with his classic Greek genes, he was presence that commanded respect no matter where he went. “Okay people, you are probably wondering what you are doing here. As you can see we have people from all over the world here.

Me: Ace, with his classic Greek genes and 6ft 6" frame, stood up and cleared his throat. No matter where Ace goes, his presence always command respect. “Okay people, you are probably wondering what you are doing here. As you can see, we have people from all over the world here. A multi-national task force is being put together - you have been chosen by your government to engage in this mission.”

Ace paused and waited for the murmuring to stop. He and those above him knew that this wasn’t going to be easy, because, most of the people in this room, were sworn enemies, at least their countries were sworn enemies, however they knew that in the coming years, the world was going to change and they wanted to be on the ground running when it did.

Me: "Alright folks, back to business. Yesterday, we have discovered, better yet, make that, it has been brought to our attention that we need to stop a very disturbing crime ring."

Ace motions someone with his head to bring up a map of the world. He turns around and looks at the screen behind him “It has come to our attention that there is an international adoption agency with offices around the world that are adopting stolen babies.” He pointed to the map and watched as dots were put in the countries and cities where the babies were being stolen from. “Here are the areas, where we have been able to pinpoint an increase in babies disappearing,” he nodded his head and watched as more dots were put up on the map, “these countries have reported an increase in international adoptions.” There were only six countries that lit up. The United States, Canada, France, Great Britain, Ireland, and Norway.
